thumbnail layout - split text

Postby Jarrod on Fri Apr 16, 2004 4:56 am

When editing a category in alpha40.1, how do you go about using the "split 1" thumbnail layout?

I want to display the artist name variable above the thumbnail and track name variable below the thumbnail in a custom database I have made for music videos.

Is there a special character to enter into the "Display" field on the "edit category" screen that will cause the split to work?

%albumname% %/% %artist% - album at top and artist under

You can use any of the tags from the data base.

Thanks!

After I realised there was a slash between those percentage signs it worked a treat :wink:

Is there anyway to choose the alignment of the this text?
I want to center the text both above and below the thumbnail.

Just tick 'centre' under the button/font section.

You can change the size and font as well.
